Pilot
production at the manufacturing facility began in November 2018 and has since been
steadily ramping up. Once fully operational, the $50 million facility will
employ more than 200 workers and manufacture 400 megawatts of high powered
60-cell and 72-cell monocrystalline PERC modules annually.

The
opening ceremony featured remarks by Nigel Cockroft, general manager of
JinkoSolar (US) Inc.; Charlie Cao, CFO of JinkoSolar; Jamal Sowell, president
and CEO of Enterprise Florida; Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry; and Jacksonville
City Council President Aaron Bowman.

“Advanced
manufacturing is critical to the continued growth of our local economy, and we
thank JinkoSolar for choosing to invest in Jacksonville,” said Aundra Wallace,
president of JAXUSA Partnership, the economic development arm of JAX Chamber.

“We
look forward to working with JinkoSolar to make sure they have the
highly-skilled workforce they need to succeed and thrive here.”

“When
JinkoSolar began exploring options for its first US manufacturing operation,
they could have chosen any location throughout the country,” said Mayor Lenny
Curry. “I am incredibly delighted that JinkoSolar chose the city of
Jacksonville as its US headquarters. It clearly demonstrates our
growing reputation as a business friendly community with a quality workforce,
quality economic offerings, and quality of life conditions. We
welcome them!”

“JinkoSolar
continues to gain market share in many regions across the globe, including the
United States, and this factory will be key to solidifying that strong market
position,” said Kangping Chen, CEO of JinkoSolar.

“We
are fortunate to call Jacksonville home with its excellent business environment
and hospitable community features, which enabled us to find a talented
workforce, complete the facility, and quickly begin producing world class PV
modules.”
